storage: enforce valid state transitions in UpdateTaskState

UpdateTaskState now validates the transition using ValidTransition inside
a transaction. Invalid transitions return an error rather than blindly
updating. Tests for retry-limit and running-task-rejection test setup
are updated to create tasks with the target state directly via CreateTask
to bypass the transition guard in setup code.
